Senior Planner Martin replied that cities typically include that information, but it would not <br />necessarily need to be included. <br />Councilmember Woestehoff stated that perhaps the total sign area is the top line of that table as <br />that would provide the necessary guidance. <br />Commissioner Peters stated that perhaps those could be combined into one row, including the total <br />sign area and explaining there is no maximum number of signs. <br />Chairperson Gengler asked if there are examples in the area of a 100 square foot sign on a wall. <br />Senior Planner Martin was unsure. <br />Planning Manager Larson could not think of any but provided some dimensions that could be 100 <br />square feet. He stated that it does fall in line with what other cities allow. <br />Councilmember Woestehoff asked if the same standards would apply to a single tenant. <br />Senior Planner Martin replied that would not apply. He explained that there is language to ensure <br />that one tenant does not take up all the space and that signage is split between the tenants in a <br />multitenant space. <br />Councilmember Woestehoff asked if there is a scenario where space on the signage could be used <br />to advertise something else, such as the development itself. <br />Senior Planner Martin commented that he could not recall any instance of non -tenant signage with <br />the exception of the Ramsey office plaza, which is identified on the sign. <br />Commissioner Bauer asked if space for lease within the building would count as non -tenant <br />signage. <br />Planning Manager Larson explained that real estate signage is temporary and covered in another <br />area of the code. He stated that this line is meant to address individual tenants not an individual <br />sign. He stated that staff could clarify that language. <br />Senior Planner Martin stated that he will make the changes as discussed and bring the final draft <br />back for consideration at a later time. <br />7.02: Discuss the Sign Code Pertaining to Freestanding, Temporary and Additional Wall <br />Signage <br />Presentation <br />Senior Planner Martin presented the Staff Report asking the Commission to provide direction to <br />staff to develop clear, consistent and simplified regulations for freestanding, temporary and <br />additional wall signage in all zoning districts. <br />Planning Commission/ November 21, 2024 <br />Page 3 of 7 <br />
